As of yesterday, I am no longer to open PNG file in photoshop. The files open fine in Preview, and display fine in the Finder preview. Same results no matter how I attempt to "open" (within Photoshop File>Open, Finder "Open with..." etc
Anyone experienced this? Ideas?
Happens with screenshots, exported images, all PNG files.
Running:
Macbook Pro Late 2016
2.7 ghz i7
High Sierra 10.13.3
Photoshop CC 19.1.1 (latest as of today)

That's a graphics problem.
Try turning off Graphics Processor in your Preferences > Performance settings.

Thanks to both of you for the help, I tried the first simply because I tried in order - but assuming they both may work - any down sides to either or is one method better than the other for overall performance?

Disabling GPU usage invalidates GPU dependent features (for example the Rotate View Tool, …), disabling the extensions-related settings would for example disable the Library Panel.

Is there another solution because that update didn't solve the issue for me. I'm still seeing a crazy mess 😞
